Elixir, Phoenix Framework and Datatables
I built an administrative tool for my company that used Phoenix server side templating, bootstrap and datatables.js. This is not because I have an overwhelming preference for bootstrap or datatables.js. I just happened to find these first in the course of building the web app and they were able to solve my problem. Phoenix server-side templates are awesome, powerful and easy-to-use. I did have a bit of trouble with datatables so I figured I’d write up a brief blog post on how I got datatables to work with server-side paging.
